I got some scratch lottery tickets for my birthday, and believe it or not, I won $100.00 on one of the tickets, and $2.00 on another. I also got a nice Cubs sweat jacket, along with the aforementioned Sideshow Stormy, and a raffle ticket that could win me a pair of tickets to the Cubs Sox crosstown classic, plus dinner at Harry Carey's!

Hey Barry. On this site at least, I have not yet wished you a happy birthday!.

I'm glad you liked the surprise present I sent you. (It was the SideShow Stormtrooper I gather Barry already posted about. Several friends of mine in San Diego also got the trooper and I thought it was awesome too!) - And his birthday card was kind of special.

My Padres sent their regards to your Cubs as well but I think it was lost over the back wall of PetCo Park in the fourth inning tonight.

I'm going out to finish watching the game at a sports bar.

I rented Fan Boys tonight and was half watching that as well as the game.

Knowing that I love Star Trek, and what with viewing that movie that pushes the two genres' fans to extreme competition against one another - I know - and so much because of Barry, BOBAFRETT, that if it came down to THAT, I'd grab my lightsaber and WILL NEVER TOLERATE someone calling Han Solo a $#%#@!!!

I stand with the Star Wars fans and know with my life at stake - literally - never to doubt the power of the Force!

Barry, I guess it was our destiny, with appropriate thanks to SirSteve!

p.s. I did get you another present. You should get it before Christmas. I hope. But that I have no control over. "Control. Control. I need control."

Illinois has an awesome scratch-off program! You won all that from lottery tickets?!? Sweet! Birthday luck and wishes are the best kinds.

Does that make it an early Christmas present then?

My son's girlfriend baked me about 42 chocolate chip cookies. I have like 3 left, and they'll be lucky if they live through until 8 p.m. YUMMY!
